When is a Consultantrequired on a project?
• By statute, an architect is required for any public project when the cost of construction is One Hundred Fifty-Eight Thousand Dollars ($158,000.00) or more. Some projects less than $158,000.00 may also require an architect due to complexity or special requirements. Engineers are generally required for mechanical, electrical, structural or civil work regardless of cost, although minor electrical and mechanical maintenance or replacement work does not. Asbestos, environmental and other types of consultants may also be necessary. A CAP project manager is available to discuss and advise concerning the requirements for your specific project.
